The majority of the pictures were composed with very little cropping. I  use the full LCD screen of my camera to compose the image. </div> <bR> <div> The  majority of the picutres were taken near my home in San Francisco in my  miraloma neighborhood, the Strybring Arboretum in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park or local  bay area parks. </div> <bR> <div> The home page name comes from the japanese concept of the garden pathway ( Rôji ) leading to the Tea Room for cha-no-yu (Japanese tea ceremony).  </div> <bR> <div> The garden pathway provides an  uplifting peaceful transition from the distractions and din of the outside  world to the sanctuary of nature and the inner world.</div> <bR> <div> All photographs are copy righted.</div> <bR> <div> Stephen Gale</div> <div> December 25,  2002</div> <bR> <div>   <a href="http://counter.mycomputer.com/"><img
